I was all done blogging for the day

I was about to put away my blogging window when I saw this story from the DailyKos via Pharyngula.

Appalling.

The link is about a Christianist rally called Battlecry, complete with unabashedly militant symbolism that borders on Nazi propaganda. When former Special Forces servicemen are posing as trigger-happy Navy SEALs and this is considered positive PR for the extremist Christians, complete with a letter of approval from our Fearless Leader (keeping Alabama's skies free of Commies since 1972), is there any doubt about the ultimate goal of the evangelical movement in America today?

So much for the land of the free...

[Update: An excellent first-person account of BattleCry can be found at truthdig. Be sure and check out some of the comments too.]
